Once a GREAT radio station back when the Wheeling jamboree was running strong. But now it's just a totally automated waste of electricity. NOBODY wants to hear "bloom dummy" in the morning when REAL talent like "Dimitri" is available on other stations! Such a tremendous waste of electricity and coverage. Thousands of tourists used to come to wheeling every saturday from Canada and surrounding states because of the tremendous popularity of the WWVA jamboree. Now WWVA has been reduced to just another small market station nobody listens to anymore. No listeners equals no ad revenues. Radio 101 read more

Ya pretty good. It's been around a long time and licensed for daytime 50 kw. Good content if you are into talk radio. Power (like all AM stations) reduced at night and I think they have the customary 3 towers that are used at night so as to be highly directional. I believe this is done because the AM signal goes far at night and FCC doesn't want the signal bumping into another stations coverage area. You see there's I think 3 layers to the ionosphere and at night, the signal can bounce off the middle layer and go very far. In fact, the wave can go clear up to Scotland from eastern Ohio where the 3 array towers are. It's fascinating to me. I'm not technically trained in this stuff but have a relative working in engineering at kgo is SFO that taught me some things! read more
